Struggling with limited rack space and high power bills while trying to extend your network over long distances? The Allied Telesis AT-MMC2000LX/LC-TAA-60 1Gbps External Media Converter bridges copper and single-mode fibre, giving you a reliable 1 Gbps link that fits into tight spots and keeps energy costs low.
Key Features of a 1Gbps Media Converter
- Power consumption: 1.7 W. Minimal electricity use reduces running costs.
- Smart MissingLink (SML): monitors connections and alerts you to failures, so you can locate problems fast.
- Smart Link Restoration: automatically restores the link after power loss or interruption, avoiding manual resets.
- Auto-uplink (auto MDI/MDI-X): detects and adapts to cable type, eliminating the need for crossover cables.
- Jumbo Frame support: 10 KB frames allow larger data packets, improving efficiency on busy networks.
- Far End Fault (FEF) detection: identifies faults at the far end of the fibre, helping quick troubleshooting.
- Auto-negotiation: automatically selects the best speed and duplex settings for optimal performance.
- External form factor: compact, wall-mountable design saves space in crowded cabinets.
- Operating voltage: DC 12 V, 0.14 A. Simple power supply requirements fit most installations.
Allied Telesis Media Converter
If you manage a small office, a remote site, or a growing data centre, you know how frustrating it is to run Ethernet over long runs without sacrificing speed. Traditional copper cabling tops out at 100 m, forcing costly rewires. This converter lets you use existing fibre runs to carry gigabit traffic, solving space constraints and future-proofing your network without a major overhaul.
Benefits of Allied Telesis Media Converter
- Space saving: tiny external unit fits into cramped environments.
- Energy efficient: low 1.7 W draw cuts electricity bills.
- Reliable uptime: Smart MissingLink and automatic restoration keep connections alive.
- Easy installation: auto-uplink removes the need for special cables.
Usages of a 1Gbps Media Converter
Ideal for linking office LANs to distant fibre backbones, extending gigabit connectivity to remote buildings, or upgrading legacy copper networks in tight racks where space and power are at a premium.
